Supreme x Clarks Desert Mali low: would you?

This is the latest colab between Supreme and Clarks - something we have now come to expect as each season progresses. These are essentially, as their name suggests, a desert boot without the boot bit, so therefore a desert shoe.

The only identifying Supreme contribution would appear to be an embossed logo on the heel, and I'm guessing the colourway, because without it, these would just be a slightly tweaked pair of Desert Khans.

And the question has to be, would you have given them a second look without that logo?

Available in Supreme stores worldwide from March 29.

Supreme SS12: Hide and seek

On February 23 the paper comes off the windows at Supreme once more and you will be able to line up with the five-panel crew for the chance to see with your own eyes the spring-summer collection instead of on that sodding website.

No doubt you'll be wondering how they can even consider wheeling out some of the shit that's going to be on offer, but as is usual, a few pieces will stand out. One of them for me at least is going to be this leather jacket collaboration with Schott, even if it's only to discover what makes it any different. And to find out if the fur collar comes off.

There's a couple of other bits I've got my eye on too, like the dogtooth mac.

And the Kate Moss tee? Not sure if I can see myself pulling that one off.

Kate Moss for Supreme: the big question

You might think that all these posters of Kate Moss in a Supreme t-shirt would point to the release of a new tee featuring this very image when the store reopens with its spring summer collection on February 23 (in London).

You might be right. But you might be wrong. Previous promotional flyposters have not necessarily been an indication of a forthcoming t-shirt release. One thing's for sure, the hype is well and truly building.

Supreme London: stocking up

Leopard trenchcoat

I've been like a kid in a candy store since Supreme opened in London.

This brand is ideal for me. Limited production runs, a street style ethos, and just inside what I would define as affordable. What's more, there's always a little surprise when you purchase stuff. Such as with the Club Jacket, which turned out to be manufactured from British Millerain waxed cotton.

Here's a few shots of the jackets I've picked up.

Supreme Harmony Korine decks: scary boards

The latest skateboard collab  from Supreme will be released on Thursday and will feature the haunting images of writer, director and filmmaker Harmony Korine.

Harmony Korine is known for working in all kinds of media and focusing on various aspects of youth culture and street life as well as stuff like personality disorders, dysfunctionality and mental disorders.

I'm not entirely sure I could sleep at night knowing one of these is in the same room as me.

Supreme London store opening: I wasn't there

It was all because of this

I've done my fair share of waiting outside shops. There was many a Saturday morning back in the day when you would find me queueing outside Busy Workshop with all the other Bapeheads for a chance to get my paws on a shark hoody.

But I never did get my head round waiting there overnight like some of the true (mainly Japanese, it must be said) devotees. Which is why I only ever managed to get second best, which was usually something like a purple camo crew neck sweat. Although I did once grab a Kaws chomper hoodie.

It should be noted, however, that not a single item I have ever qeueued for is still in my wardrobe, and that goes for Supreme as well as it does Bape. In fact I disliked my Supreme Damien Hirst box logo tee so much that it was on Ebay within a day of me waiting for hours outside Dover Street Market to get it.

So when I turned that corner off Wardour Street into Peter Street yesterday afternoon and discovered that the small gathering outside the new Supreme store was just the beginning of the queue which started again at the Co-Op up the road (so cars could get through) and went from there round the corner past the loading bays, I didn't feel like hanging about.

And for the first time ever I also felt a little bit old, seeing as I had just come from work and wasn't wearing a snap-back cap, a chambray shirt, skinny chinos or Vans Era.

So I hoofed it. I was later tweeted by someone who told me he had waited 18 hours in the queue. For a t-shirt.

To add insult to injury, my invite to the opening party must have got lost in the post, so these pics have been lifted with great care and many huge thanks from Hypebeast, Better Never than Late, and Firmament.

I'm going to try and get in there again in a little while.

Just imagine turning around to find that yellow thing staring at you

The crowd looked a bit cock-heavy to be honest

Insert names of people I should know here

Viewed from the front or the back it was still a massive yellow plastic thing

If I had got this close I would have considered it a success

If she got this at the store, what was she wearing when she came in?

Supreme London: about time

Just when I was beginning to think there was jack all to post about, along comes news of a Supreme store in London.

It's right in the middle of Soho, just off Wardour Street and in perfect trotting distance for all the skater-types working in the media companies around there.

It opens on Thursday so I'm probably the last to hear about it.

Supreme FW 2011: another lookbook

Last week you got a look at a Japanese magazine shoot for the latest Supreme collection. This week, just to make sure there is no more milk left in the udder, here's the collection in full, from Supreme's own lookbook.

Don't say I don't flog things to death.

Supreme fall / winter 2011: chill winds

Japanese street fashion mag Cool Trans has done a shoot featuring the latest collection from New York skate brand Supreme.

It features Aaron Bondaroff looking suitably bothered or unbothered, depending on which picture you look at.

The collection is your tytpical Supreme fayre of shirts, caops, hoodies, and leather puffer jackets, and will no doubt be fairly reasonably priced but sell out instantly.

Supreme x Fragment Nike Air Zoom All Court: off target

Am I missing something here or is this one of the worst trainer designs I've ever come across? In fact if you went to a counterfeiter and said "I want a fake pair of Nike x Fragment x Supreme kicks" I can more or less guarantee they would come up with something like this.

No subtlety, no thought, no imagination.

But maybe I am missing something. Maybe they are supposed to look like something that's come out of a stinky little factory in Huangdong Province staffed by five-year-olds. Maybe they even did.

I'm sure these will be difficult to track down, but when you do find some, you're welcome to them.
